Films watched in 2018

Till September 1st 2018, I had seen only 15 movies in this year. After that we moved into our new home, bought Amazon Firestick and subscribed to Netflix. We can see the difference in the number of movies, as well as number of Hindi movies I have seen.


1) Insidious: The Last Key (2018) 5.0/10
This was a big drag with some occasional wow moments and very predictable screenplay, which works against this genre.
 

2) Jack Reacher: Never Go Back (2016) 6.5/10
Usual Tom Cruise movie, very much watchable. First one in this series was better though.
